is it possible to include some basic filters for the actual video it self?
1: Crop..preferably via a visual frame that can be dragged/resized
2: Brightness/intensity
(3+4: contrast + saturation)
Seem current filters only apply to stills/the thumbnail for the video..not for video it self

Using actionscam I have HD1080 but all very wide angle, so currently I have to 'detour' via Xmedia to corp = act as digital zoom .. no loss as long as I only crop down to the resolution I want JA to work with

The same actioncams are not very good in low light..so often I need to push the light a good bit for scenes indoors, in forest, in dusk etc.

ok seems all is there https://www.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-filters.html
..crop
..(even drawtext filter so logo setting from stills could be ported to video as well)
..however brightness seems to require several filters applied http://ffmpeg.gusari.org/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=663

but how do I pass parameters directly to the video (reformat or play) in JA?

ok took an example from
https://www.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-filters.html#crop
and input like -filter as written in
http://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg.html#Filtering
i.e. (see also screenshot)
name: -filter
value : crop=w=100:h=100:x=12:y=34
It processes ok .. can see it chews on the video in my small test album (and can see it has generated a new video)..BUT in local preview I see no cropping of video??..i.e. crop filter was 'skipped' , though the advanced video settings change provoked a reprocessing of the video

how can I check that the crop filter is indeed invoked and ..that the libavfilter library is available

yes (or navigate to /album subfolder and click on it )

album has has only two items: two small videos, one in 'root' and one in a subfolder (original sideways -> was used to test JA abilty or rotate.)

consol/debug mode Turtle 4.3.3 and JA 11.4.1
well there is some exemptions and funny stuff it seems .. which I do not know how to interpret

ok got it to crop now..mimicking stuff from discussion in
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1147161

using -vf to call crop instead -filter?? (I do not know why)

it works wrt size of cropped area (i.e. area shown in video)..BUT it overwrites the default -vf string in JA/Video (see screen shot)..don't remember what I missed by this overwrite

so in principle it work w those 4 parameters (my guess us in Xmedia recode he just crudely passes user input xl,xr,htop,hbottom more or less directly to ffmpeg crop filter). It would be MUCH more user friendly porting the existing JA graphical UI for crop on stills -> to also work for the video, using call to ffmpeg crop

now next thing is how to do brightness .. I again have to make a call via -vf instead of -filter?

thanks

Hi,

try adding something like this to the video filter string (-vf param):

mp=eq2=1.0:2:0.5

separating other filters with a comma like so:

-vf "mp=eq2=1.0:2:0.5,<other filters>"

The three values separated by : are gamma, brightness and contrast. Fiddle with these until you get the desired effect (The example should make the image lighter).

This is what jAlbum does now. It processes a video only the first time it encounters it. It's just like image processing - done only once, unless you change something.


This is already built in.

well the original thread about adding a sound clip to stills seems 'shuffled away' ??
"the feature request of adding sound to stills, in threads http://jalbum.net/forum/thread.jspa?threadID=44687&tstart=0 "

anyway the fuctionality is indeed handable now in
thread

BUT would like an simple JA menu option functionality to do it pr image (prompting for sound clip via search .. or able to dump such sound file onto image .. -> JA makes the audio tags and places sound file in res folder
